Hey, I've seen your paintings for a looong time now, excellent, brilliant work. But did you remove the Download button, or is it a dA thing? Also, I may be wrong here, but I think you had another Mario painting.. didn't you? =]

While there's more of a watercolor feel here than the game's crayons, it's still extremely faithful to the Yoshi's Island style. You did a great job. Now you've left me wanting a Yoshi watercolor game for home console. Time to start a petition that'll never get anywhere...

When I look at this, I like to imagine Nintendo making a Yoshi's Island Wii U game, and using this exact art style for the graphics (no 3D models, backgrounds, or anything or the sort). Man, that would be so awesome... I'd love to play a game that looks like this (and considering the Wii U's graphic capabilities, I'd think it'd be completely possible).

(...though that's assuming we get another Yoshi's Island game.)

Anyhoo, that's just wishful thinking. As for the picture itself, I think you did a great job on it. Again, makes me wish I could play what I described above.

I really like how you made it soft toned and yet added a huge water color like feature to. The colors all contrast and match well. The orange flowers along with the green cacti and plants, however, kind of take the focus off of Yoshi and Mario though. Other than that you did a really great job and I love it!

Everything looks super cute, but for some reason, the Shy Guys really stole the show, here. I mean it in a good way, just so you know. The attention to detail of their mask caught my eye- you didn't just draw two circles and colour them black; they looked carved out. Of course, Baby Mario and Yoshi look tres adorable!
